finally got the tank and stand up. had to shim 2 sides but i got it level. i switched the stock pump for a sicce 2 pump that i see a lot of people do. i had to remove the suction cups that came with it and use some leg less ones. other than that it fits good. i will be working on rock and sand today hopefully. i hear we have snow coming tonight so i probably will have spend most of the day tomorrow shoveling. i need to move where there palm trees !
ok rocks are almost done. i have to add a small one between the left vertical wall and the small one in the center. i am going to use a piece from 125 gallon that is already encrusted with coraline. should help seed the other rocks. i don't love the look but i can live with it.
thanks for the comment, i am not sure yet what i want to keep . i have some softies that i could transfer and keep it simple, but i would like to have color also. maybe a mixed this time. i also thought about some easier sps only. i did get it up and running last night but i might move a couple of pieces of rock around depending on what i put in there. the spin streams are noisy but i have heard once they break in they are silent. they do not seem to be as bad this morning.

You can find some good colors on softies.
I’m trying to do a mix just started let’s see how it goes!
3x since synchra 0.5?? What are thosefinally got the tank and stand up. had to shim 2 sides but i got it level. i switched the stock pump for a sicce 2 pump that i see a lot of people do. i had to remove the suction cups that came with it and use some leg less ones. other than that it fits good. i will be working on rock and sand today hopefully. i hear we have snow coming tonight so i probably will have spend most of the day tomorrow shoveling. i need to move where there palm trees !
It must have been a Jedi mind trick. I saw multiple pumps but there's only one. Where did you get the adapter to go from 3/4" to 1/2"? Are you running it at full gph setting?
I bought one for my 40 might put it in today.
i saw the reflection also and does look like two. i got the adapter from lowes. i am running it at full speed. i had to replace the stock suction cups with ones with shorter legs so i could slide it down side ways. then i screwed the adapter on with the hose barb already screwed into the adapter. you might have to boil some water and put the hose in to loosen it up to go on the barb at the pump. i also had to cut about 1/2 inch of hose off at the outlet connectors. i did all this while the tank was off the stand to make it easier. everything runs great. i also am using the spin streams that seem like they starting to quiet down some. hope this helps.
thanks man, i was going to buy this in october but went with a marineland 60 cube instead. that turned out to have a bad stand that lead to a bubble in the silicone. finally got this one and i am glad i did. never had a aio so there are some things to learn. i will let you know how it goes. how is your tank doing ?

I just got the chance to buy a 125g, 55g, and an IM 40 setup. You've got me thinking about it now! Looking good
